DNA banks - providing novel options for genebanks?
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/104772
Abstract
The rapidly expanding study of DNA in so many areas of science has created an odd surplus: the DNA itself. Reasonably easy and inexpensive to store, with established techniques for almost infinite multiplication, the samples of DNA created in laboratories around the world have almost by accident become an important resource for future research. Participants at an IPGRI-organized meeting on The Evolving Role of Genebanks in the Fast-…

Evaluation of best practices for landrace conservation: farmer evaluation
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/104791
Abstract
Traditional farming systems and conservation of local cultivars and associated indigenous knowledge are under threat and growing pressure resulting in genetic erosion of crop diversity. These systems are an essential component of sustainable crop production, household income and human nutrition for many of the poor farmers found in fragile semi-arid ecosystems of sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). With the signing of the…
